Another interesting find with the troublesome calendar module after deleting everything in the css folder and flushing caches.
Firebug in Firefox would not reveal the specific code, <Tools/DeveloperTools> in chromium does. I will investigate this further.
I found the css in calendar_multiday.css and extended the width to 60em and height to 3.9em and find it contains all of the field data including all of the dates supplied by the repeating dates option. There seems to be no way to have just one or two fields in the display which displays everything in one long line. I have only the fields that the view needs. Very messy to say the least.
So apparently there is no built in way to filter out just one date either in the date module or the calendar module and filter just what is needed for the display.
If anyone can throw some light on how best to tackle this problem it's much appreciated Thanks Roger
